Hello All,
I have a problem:
The Debian Sarge system crashes time to time.
First of all Nautilus dissapears panels stop working trying to "ctrl+alt+beckspace" to reboot the X server stops the server and it does not come up.
When I try to log in via text console (cntrl+alt+f1-6) it refuses to login sowing message
"tty respawning too fast" or something like that.
I can't either login via ssh/telnet.
Trying ctrl+alt+del in text console tells it can't execure /sbin/shutdown
However system still responds on keyboard and I still connect via this computer to internet (it shares the internet to other PC at home)
Only hot reset can be done.
The system under external+internal firewall.
Kernel 2.6.12-1-386.
Example of typical last mesages in log before the crash (but they are instant messages and heppen all the time) after crash untill reboot nothing in logs.
Code:
